Frequently asked questions
Is customs clearance available at KASN?
No, KASN does not have onsite customs service. The nearest customs facility is Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International (KBHM), located approximately 35 nautical miles away. Operators needing to clear customs should plan to route through KBHM rather than Talladega Municipal Airport. This applies to any international arrival requiring inspection.
How long is the runway at Talladega Municipal Airport?
Talladega Municipal Airport (KASN) has a single paved runway, 04/22, measuring 6,032 feet long and 100 feet wide with an asphalt surface. This length is sufficient to accommodate most mid-size and some larger business jets. There is no parallel or crosswind runway at the field, so wind conditions along the 04/22 axis are the primary operational consideration.
What is the attendance schedule at KASN?
KASN operates on a published attendance schedule of Monday through Friday, 0800 to 1600 local time. Outside these hours the field is unattended, consistent with its status as a non-towered general aviation airport. A temporary control tower can be activated by NOTAM for special events, which is notable given the airport's proximity to motorsport activity in the area.
Why does traffic at KASN spike in certain months?
Business aviation traffic at Talladega Municipal Airport shows a sharp seasonal pattern, with April and October each recording well over 100 operations in 2025 compared to fewer than 40 in most other months. This pattern aligns with the airport's role supporting nearby motorsport events. Operators planning trips during these two months should expect higher ramp and parking demand than the rest of the year.
